Last week our friends Hot Chelle Rae helped us celebrate the first season of The OurStage Panel in New York. But there’s still plenty of new video footage, photos and interviews to tide you over until the Finale officially airs, like this behind-the-scenes video interview with finalist Matt Bailie.

Watch below as Matt talks with OurStage about his relationship with the Van Zant brothers, winning the grand prize on OurStage twice and his vast range of influences. Be sure to follow The OurStage Panel on Twitter for updates and “Like” OurStage on Facebook to see exclusive photos from last week’s event featuring Hot Chelle Rae and other industry insiders, like Trey Morgan from Z100.
